Fantasy Fish proving popular |
After the Fantasy Fish Yarnstorm was taken down, all the fish whirled in the washer, went "online" and then got packed up ready for the #FantasyFish sales.
All packed up and ready to go |
Not only were there all the fish but we needed plenty of tables too...
Tables, chairs and a very large fish |
We used the big fish as our sign.
Rummaging for fish |
The sales were fantastic with lots of people coming along to buy fish. We had to have sealed bids for these beauties...

...and the winning bid saw them go to live with a local artist. The goldfish in the bowl...

...has gone to be a carefree pet in the Ocean Room at the Robert Wilkinson Primary Academy in Strensall, York. A number of other lovelies are now swimming in their own bowls at their new owners too!
An inseparable pair! |

The hammerheads proved popular. One is now residing in a cabinet of awesomeness...

But, what I'm sure you'd really like to know is how much we raised for the York Flood Appeal? It was an amazing £600+. So a big THANK YOU to everyone who made or bought fish or donated to the cause - a fantastic community effort. And it's been a blast!
